In this report, we hope to inform the University of Maine System community with an overview of the US:IT Organization, updates on major projects and service enhancements completed or undertaken this past year, partnerships facilitated and a vision of the future for the US:IT team. HOur division continues to strive to support the ‘One University’ concept by providing reliable, secure and robust technological solutions that enhance teaching and learning, create operational efficiencies and accommodate the business goals of each campus constituency. Information contained in this report was contributed by numerous staff within US:IT and the success metrics reported highlight the ongoing dedication and David Demers, Ph.D. commitment of the entire US:IT team to deliver exemplary customer service to each Chief Information Officer campus we support. In this report we also outline the collaborations, partnerships and activities we will continue to pursue in order to enhance the technology and information services landscape for the University of Maine system. It should also be noted that the past year was one of leadership transition for US:IT. Dick Thompson, who retired as CIO in September 2017, was the driving force behind the IT unification effort. This monumental task positioned US:IT to be on the leading edge for the University of Maine System to drive new efficiencies and realize savings in order to combat rising costs and shrinking budgetary allocations. Through his stewardship and leadership, US:IT emerged to serve as a model of success for other units to follow. I am grateful to Dick for his contributions and his strength in seeing this initiative through. It is my goal to continue to build upon this success. To do so will require continued collaboration and teamwork throughout the division as well as with the students, faculty and staff we serve on each campus. I truly look forward to working together as a group to achieve this goal. US:IT STATE OF IT REPORT 2017 3 OVERVIEW OF US:IT Structure, Leadership and Staffing he University Services: Information Technology division consists of more than 200 US:IT employees organized into the following functional areas: • Support Services • Classroom Technology • End User Technology T• Information Security • Enterprise Computing and Applications • Campus Academic and Business Solutions • Web Technologies • Network Services • Data Center Operations • Advanced Computing Group • Project Management • Data Analytics and Reporting Technology Services In addition, each campus in the University of Maine System has a designated Campus Information Technology Officer as well as a Campus Operations Manager. These roles are charged with providing each campus with strategic and operational level IT support through collaboration and engagement. A full organizational chart for US:IT is now available at: www.maine.edu/its/ US:IT STATE OF IT REPORT 2017 4 OVERVIEW OF US:IT Support Services he University Services:Information Technology division supports greater than 100 unique services At this time there are 85 public-facing services in the catalog across a dozen categories: with numerous more internal to IT.

Annual Budget he US:IT budget is comprised of compensation and benefits for US:IT employees, non- compensation annual expenses and annual revenue offsets. The consolidated US:IT budget is almost entirely recharge-based, with the rational cost for services and support charged back to individual University of Maine System campuses. This arrangement Tprovides a cost-effective model for delivering a blend of campus-specific and shared IT services for each member campus; this model is also leveraged by other UMS shared services organizations, including human resources, strategic FIGURE D procurement, general counsel, internal audit and finance. Since 2017, the US:IT budget has experienced modest growth to keep pace with contractually-mandated salary and annual licensing increases. As shown in Figure (D), the FY18 budget increased by a total of 5.1% to $23.739M over the FY17 budget ($22.580M).

  • Verona Island, Maine Comprehensive Plan 2006
    VERONA ISLAND, MAINE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2006 Prepared by the Verona Island Comprehensive Plan Committee VERONA ISLAND - MAINE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2006 Verona Island shall encourage both orderly residential and business growth and development while protecting the town’s rural character, preventing sprawl, protecting the quantity and quality of the town’s water resources and encouraging the preservation of large tracts of land for other locally appropriate and sustainable uses. Prepared by the Verona Island Comprehensive Plan Committee: Lionel Harvey Marlene Smith Linwood Bridges Paul Hansen Gary Haslam Wendy Carpenter Marilyn Baggett David Harrison Ed Petravicz Cleo Cottrell Lisa Bridges Dotty Seekins Jose Donnel Ann Ramsdell With assistance from the Hancock County Planning Commission 395 State Street Ellsworth, ME 04605 207-667-7131 207-667-2099 (fax) www.hcpcme.org INTRODUCTION The Verona Island comprehensive plan is an advisory document that reflects desired growth patterns among town residents. Overall, it identifies current issues that the town is currently facing, or expects to face in the next 5-10 years. This plan is an update of the 1978 plan and replaces that document. The plan will only become valid upon adoption by town residents at a town meeting; contents will be the legal basis for any changes to land use ordinances, which must similarly be voted on at a town meeting. It is important to remember that a public hearing is required to take place before a town vote. Also, since conditions in the town are expected to change over time, the plan should be reviewed on a periodic basis and updated accordingly.

  • Katahdin Iron Works and Its Effect on the Water Quality of the West Branch of the Pleasant River
    Katahdin Iron Works and its Effect On the Water Quality of the West Branch of the Pleasant River Katahdin Iron Works Township (T6 R9 NWP) Piscataquis County, Maine, USA By Mark Whiting Maine Department of Environmental Protection Bangor Regional Office 106 Hogan Road, Suite 6 Bangor, Maine 04401 Ore Excavation Pit, Ore Mountain, Photo by Mark Whiting June 14, 2010 DEPLW-1172 I. Introduction and Background Information: The Pleasant River is a tributary to the Maine’s largest river, the Penobscot. The Penobscot River watershed has the vast majority of the federally-listed endangered Atlantic salmon in Maine, accounting for 95% of the adult returns. Furthermore, this watershed is likely to play an increasingly important role in the conservation of Maine Atlantic salmon. In 2004, an agreement was signed to restore 11 sea-run fish species on the Penobscot River, while at the same time preserving hydroelectric power capacity. The non-profit Penobscot River Restoration Trust was created to raise money and coordinate the activities of the restoration partners. These include the Penobscot Indian Nation, six environmental groups, the hydropower dam owner, and State and Federal agencies. The project involves the removal of the two lower dams on the river, Veazie and Great Works. The Milford dam will have improved fish passage and the Howland dam will be decommissioned and by-passed by a natural-looking river channel. To find out more about the restoration program visit the Penobscot River Restoration Trust website (http://www.penobscotriver.org/). The Piscataquis River is one of the major western tributaries to the Penobscot.

  • A WABANAKI CASE Alvin H. Morrison State University of New York At
    179 THE SPIRIT OF THE LAW VERSUS THE STORM SPIRIT: A WABANAKI CASE Alvin H. Morrison State University of New York at Fredonia INTRODUCTION The intent of the Native American Religious Freedom Act (Pub­ lic Law 95-341) is that Whites should accept as valid whatever In­ dian practitioners claim to be their traditional religious beliefs; the opinions of non-practitioners are deemed non-valid. However, when evidence exists that makes Indian claims questionable, what is to be accepted as valid? Such a thesis/antithesis situation arises in the Wa­ banaki claims regarding the native religious use of Maine's highest peak, Mt. Katahdin, versus qualifying, if not contrary, folklore, ethnohistory, and other data obtained by Whites. While a conclusive synthesis may be impossible at this time in this case, it stands as an example of a major problem in implementing PL 95-341. This paper1 attempts no definite answers to the questions of Wa­ banaki religion that are its chief concern. Indeed, the true answers may never be found, as is so often the case in ethnohistorical matters. However, a tentative conclusion is offered that supports the real pur­ pose of the paper, which is to exemplify a major difficulty in imple­ menting the clear intent of the American Indian Religious Freedom Act. Our title, "The Spirit of the Law versus the Storm Spirit", suc­ cinctly points out the basic elements in a problem of conflicting evi­ dence as to what were the traditional Wabanaki religious beliefs and practices pertaining to Maine's highest mountain. Section 2 of this PL 95-342 dated 11 August, 1978 reads, in part: The President shall direct the various Federal departments, agencies, and other instrumentalities responsible for administering relevant laws to evaluate their policies and procedures in consultation with native traditional religious leaders in order to determine appropriate changes necessary to protect and pre­ serve Native American religious cultural rights and practices.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this work is to give the reader a feeling for the events and people who are part of the one-hundred-year history of East Millinocket. It is not a complete history of the town. It does not attempt to include a complete listing of all of the hard-working people who built the community, held public offices, served on committees, taught in its schools, served its churches, played in its streets and worked at Great Northern Paper Company because that would be an impossible job. Many important contributors, unknown to the author and not listed in town records, must be paid silent recognition for making East Millinocket a decent community. We thank them all.
